EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The applicant was discharged for Misconduct due to involvement with drugs. The applicant tested positive for cocaine on a urinalysis conducted 
in late 2005.
The Board finds no issues with propriety in this case. The Board finds no issues of equity in this case. Coast Guard policy prescribes no higher 
than a General, Under Honorable Conditions character of service for individuals separated as a result of violating the Coast Guard's drug policy. 
The applicant has not provided any evidence to support a request for an upgrade based upon the equity standard.
The character of service should read "Under Honorable Conditions" vice "General" per ALCOAST 562/08. Therefore, the applicant should be 
issued a DD-215 reflecting this administrative change.
Propriety:	Discharge was proper.
Equity:	Discharge was equitable.
Final Adjudication by Assistant Commandant For Human Resources: No relief other than the noted administrative change to Under Honorable 
Conditions.
